1Label this diagram of a wave
- ACrest
- BTrough
2Places these wave categories into size order (smallest waves to largest).
1. [blank_start]Capillary[blank_end]
2. [blank_start]Chop[blank_end]
3. [blank_start]Swell[blank_end]
4. [blank_start]Seiche[blank_end]
5. [blank_start]Tsunami[blank_end]
6. [blank_start]Tide[blank_end]- ACapillary
- BChop
- CSwell
- DSeiche
- ETsunami
- FTide
3Fetch is the length of water over which wind has blown, the longer the fetch, the smaller and shorter the waves
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
4Wave generation relies on 4 principle factors; wind [blank_start]velocity[blank_end], wind duration, fetch and the original sea state
- Avelocity
5A [blank_start]fully developed[blank_end] sea = a sea state where the waves generated by the wind are as large as they can be under current conditions of wind velocity and fetch
- Afully developed
- Bnew
- Cold
6Progressive waves have two kinds of motion; the [blank_start]forward[blank_end] motion and the [blank_start]orbital[blank_end] motion of the water particles
- Aforward
- Borbital
7Wave mass transport is also called [blank_start]Stokes[blank_end] drift
- AStokes
- BStrokes
- CStrodes
- DSoaks
8The orbital diameters described by water particles beneath waves [blank_start]decreasing[blank_end] rapidly with distance below the water surface.
- Adecreasing
9[blank_start]Constructive[blank_end] Waves: interference deepens the wave troughs and raises the wave crests, producing a larger wave
[blank_start]Destructive[blank_end] Waves: interference reduces the height of the larger wave- AConstructive
- BDestructive
10Seas are irregular in the [blank_start]fetch[blank_end] area because of constructive and destructive wave interference. Outside of the fetch, a regular ocean swell develops as waves sort themselves according to speed by the process of [blank_start]dispersion[blank_end].
- Afetch
- Bdispersion
11What 3 important changes occur as waves approach the coast
- ATransformation of wave properties
- BWave refraction
- CWave length increases
- DWave height decreases
- ECollapse as a shore breaker
12Label this diagram of wave refraction.
- AHigh-energy zone
- BLow-energy zone
- CWave orthogonal
13The [blank_start]node[blank_end] is the pivot point and the water level is displaced at the sides of a basin.
The [blank_start]antinode[blank_end]s are the maximum vertical displacement of the water level- Anode
- Bantinode
- Cnode
- Dantinode
14[blank_start]Internal[blank_end] waves travel at much slower speeds than [blank_start]surface[blank_end] waves.
- ASurface
- BInternal
- CSeiche
- DSurface
- EInternal
- FSeiche
